A lot of people have asked me lately here and at the stores why I stopped playing pick 3 . Simple math 20 draws and out of those you got two doubles 

double = $80

single = $40 

so your playing $20 a draw and you miss then $40 a day and you miss ....well guess what you need to win 3 times to be ahead. 

What my friends and I have found is we just don't play its NOT cost effective we have crunched the numbers its like seinfeld where newman and george was going to turn in the bottles. .....the money doesn't show up ! He's reduced the doubles down to maybe ten a month and making money off of you thinking they are going to drop like alice days . ((((STOP))) 

We have not seen 211 or 911 b/c they are making $$$$$$$ off those two numbers . Something pick 3 players have to understand they fund a lot of their other games through pick 3 players . 3 triples in a month ........oh okay DROP A QUAD and then I'll say your being fair to players but you won't b/c then you have to PROVE that you paid that money out. Where is 1010 in pick 4 ? Oh I forgot you have to prove you paid that money out I know you don't like to pay but haven't you made enough money on those numbers I mentioned ? Umm yes . Street playing is alive and well until your antics stop I don't know if your end game is to ruin the lottery but really your going that way. No one cares
